Grant Activity:
Perovskite photovoltaic-assisted energy conversion system using wastewater
Purpose:
This project aims to explore the potential of a solar-driven electrochemical system to simultaneously generate hydrogen and electricity by utilising wastewater as a fuel. The key concept of this system is integrating high efficiency perovskite solar cells as a high voltage supplier, with the electrochemical system to accelerate solar-to-hydrogen conversion and oxygen reduction for solar-to-electricity conversion during oxidisation of organic fuels in wastewater. This project expects to open up an independent and transportable power grid-free electrochemical system to address energy and water utilisation issues, especially for remote and Indigenous areas in Australia.
